79coyotefrg · October 15, 2009, 07:53:52 AM

guys, I know if i pass away i would want my casket loaded into the back of my truck and all my friends to crawl along behind me

yall have GOT to do it, i'm sure if you explain the situation the Rainier PD would allow buggies and truggies as long as they were escorted by road worthy rigs

just thinking about it gives me chills,

SWAMPER · October 15, 2009, 08:08:45 AM

Rest in peace Kyle

ROKTOY829 · October 15, 2009, 12:57:25 PM

My thoughts and prayers go out to his friends and family. I bet he is up in heaven building a cloud wheeler so they can crawl the clouds.

Shamb · October 15, 2009, 08:11:54 PM

bad news on top of bad news. I was expecting this to be a post about stuff he had done to his rig.

last I spoke w/ him was at MCR6.. he cruised out with our group..

my condolences to his friends and family.

yea i'm totally bummer right now... $I\'m Down$

Skinny_Pedal · October 17, 2009, 04:02:56 PM

This just plain blows. Kyle was great guy to be around and talk to. I remember he helped me greatly back when I was in highschool on my senior project. It makes you think not to take anyday for granted and enjoy your time on earth.

RIP Kyle.... $Beer Chug\'n$

Steve97TJ · October 18, 2009, 06:52:46 PM

Really unfortunate to hear. Never met him but did talk a little over the board and he seemed like he was a stand up guy. His toy was one of the first i had seen and it truly inspired me and is probably my favorite 1st gen.

RIP kyle

Ramrod · October 21, 2009, 12:29:04 AM

just coming out of the bush for the first time online in 5 months to see this as one of the first things is not cool at all. besides this I already had a summer of loss with 2 deaths in my family over a 10 day period while i was thousands of miles away without a clue. Im not sure what to say right now beside the obvious things like how awesome and helpful kyle was was in all way, now that he is gone I wish I would have spent alot more time getting to know hime he was a true blue dude down for whatever they way we should all be. I will never forget you Kyle. REST IN PEACE, I am so sorry jan

kneedownnate · October 21, 2009, 12:51:28 AM

That sucks Pat, sorry to hear about your losses as well.

germ · October 21, 2009, 02:14:55 PM

WOW! I'm saddened to see all of this. Another reminder of how fragile life really is. Hug everyone you love, then hug them all again. My prayers are with his family.

Erik

dude, i'm sorry to hear of your loss's

lifted_drifter · October 22, 2009, 10:04:38 PM

Kyle was the first person i met in RL from MC. In fact, the whole reason i registered on Marlin was because I saw an add he posted in the classifieds. I met him on a few occasions, the last time I saw him, he invited me over to his house and we had some Mountain Dews on his porch.
Kyle was always the first one to answer any questions i had and always offered to help me with my truck. I would have messed up a good deal many more things then I did without his tips.
If i wasn't up in alaska for school now I would definitely bring my truck to the memorial. I hope you guys are able to do that, it would be awesome.

So $Beer Chug\'n$ buddy, and i'll crack a dew for you!

rockhound · October 24, 2009, 10:08:08 PM

I've been off the forums for a while. Tonight, checking lilbuddy's for sale post, noticed RIP Kyota.
Just found this post.

I'm stunned. I hope everyone showed up in their rigs. If I had known, I would have been there with mine.
I'm so sorry for Jan's loss and our prayers are with her.

Kyle was an exemplary human being and a dedicated wheeler.

NoPower · October 24, 2009, 10:24:02 PM

His family will be in my prayers. RIP bro $Beer Chug\'n$

Cheesemaker · October 25, 2009, 06:51:16 AM

I wanted to go to the service, but I couldn't get time off. Already had too many people call in "sick" before I made the call yesterday morning. $I\'m Down$ But I did take some time and thought about him.

illinoisyotadriver · October 25, 2009, 08:22:22 AM

even though I've only been on here a short time it sucks when you hear bad news like one of the truly nice guys of the industries falls it just makes you all think just a little bit about the things that are so important it still sucks and I am sorry for your lose

cruzila · October 25, 2009, 08:54:33 AM

Wow, just wow.

WHITE_TRASH · October 25, 2009, 07:19:47 PM

Awwww, Ryan that sucks man, sorry to hear.

And Prismo's son was in the hospital so he couldn't make it at all. Any reports from anyone who was able to attend? I'm sure it was very nice. I'm pretty certain Marlin and Christine made it.

Yes, Marlin and Christine made it. I got a call from Marlin on his way home and he reported that the service was nice, and that the minister who performed the service included rock crawling in his speech. He called my work phone however, and I only got his message this morning

95SAS · October 26, 2009, 09:43:07 PM

Rest in Peace buddy... I remember talking to him in the marlin shout box... seems like yesterday.

iNfErNaL · October 27, 2009, 01:16:41 PM

Definately sucks to hear , I knew Kyle for about 4 or 5 years . Definately one of the coolest people I ever met , he will definately be missed . I too wanted to attend the services but had a busy weekend . RIP Bro , you will be missed for sure

Exactly what i was thinking! This definitely sucks!! He seemed like a cool guy, i didn't get the chance to meet him in person unfortunetly... He built one of the only tube beds I liked, gave him mad props for that!

axled89 · October 27, 2009, 04:10:23 PM
